It's been for ever!

 even forgot this blog even existed until today that my mother in law, B and I went out to couple of wineries! It was amazing to say the least. When we decided to start winery hopping it was already around 3:00pm (its Friday and a working day people). But still we managed to go to 3 wineries. We bought three a pinot noir and a Rose which was out of this world. I will go in more details later but the plan for the summer is to try all the wineries in Niagara peninsula during this summer. Each winery has its own tasting menu. Some come in flight of 3 or 4 and they costed $5 which can be credited towards purchasing wines. The wineries that we tried were:
1. Thirty Bench Wines: It has a flight of 3 wines to try for a quit impressive menu. Both B and I are red wine lovers (mostly Merlot) so we usually opt for the red wine. We like 2 of the three red wines that we tested. The wines were on the pricier side (compare to other wineries we have tried in the past in the region) at this winery but I think well worth it.
2. Angels Gate Winery: there was a flight of four for testing. There were plenty of wines to select from. Unfortunately we did not like any of the wines we tried and since we were kind of in rush to try more wineries we decided to just leave.
3. Rosewood Estates Winery & Meadery: we were offered a flight of 4 wines to try. The ladies at this winery were super nice and view was spectacular. They had Mead (honey wine) that was amazing. We tried the Ambrosia which was more on the sweet side but still super yum. The Rose was amazing and we ended up buying two bottles of their Rose. I like their Merlot too but B was not really onboard with that.
